Complete genome of a rare <i>Salmonella enterica</i> subsp. <i>enterica</i> serovar Hessarek from human stool
We present a complete genome of <i>Salmonella enterica</i> subsp. <i>enterica</i> serovar Hessarek isolated from a human stool from an outbreak linked to egg consumption in South Australia. Orientation of the <i>rrn</i> operon and characteristics of the <i>Salmonella</i> virulence plasmid indicates that this serovar is virulent toward humans and birds.
